Labour and social affairs minister officially resigns

Labour and Social Affairs Minister Jaromír Drábek, of the TOP 09 party,
officially quit the government when President Klaus on Wednesday accepted
his resignation. Mr Drábek announced his resignation earlier this month
in
the wake of scandal surrounding his deputy whom the police charged with
corruption. The TOP 09 party has proposed former senator Ludmila
Müllerová for the post of labour and social affairs minister, a choice
yet to be confirmed by the prime minister.
